Well, if I didn't have two hellion children tagging along with me, I would've waited up for you and went to the show with you. I highly recommend not bringing kids along for the ride. I got about ten to meet up and we rode out and went to the show. I left early to go kill my son that pulled all the model cars off the table. Maybe we'll try again at some point. I thought I'd have a bigger showing but, maybe it was just the wrong weekend. I cleared my schedule, delayed starting my new job and everything.

 

Yeh, next time we got to exchange phone numbers, lol.
It was a pretty nice ride though, besides my car dieing on my every once in a while.
All those country roads, very little traffic, very few cops. Me and my friends 4th gen were tearing it up!
We have a pretty nice car show in my neck of the woods at a burger king. You guys should come over to the Woodbridge area some time. I saw that you guys dident have that many Mustangs out there, we got TONS and very few third gens.

 

i live in Mechanicsville, Va whatcha know about the 23111 area?

 

Its about 90 miles south of me. Not a short drive, but a lot closer then roanoke. If i go down there, we have to go to the 1/4 mile drag strip. All we got in my area is 1/8

 

There are two dragstrips near me, well sorta, Richmond dragway is about 15 mins away and Dinwiddie is about 45.

Dinwiddie, tho, is a much better track and they prep it a whole lot better.

 

1bird is the MAN! My son and I met him after he left Justin's to pick up some parts for our 86... he gave us good parts and very reasonable prices.

 

I live in Woodbridge, and am picking up my 91 RS tomorrow in Winchestor.

 

Im in Woodbridge almost everyday, and I live in Dumfries, which is only 10min south. So if you ever need any help or wanna go up to the Burger King car show in Manassas, just hit me up.

 

You're talkin about the 28 meet right?

 

Sorry I missed the cruse to the MDA show the other week. They are tring to kill me at work and that is putting me behind at home fixing Justins car. The engine should go in tonight. Just thought I would throw out that the first "Cruze In" at River Ridge Mall in Lynchburg is April 18. That is the third Saturday in april and every third Saturday after that til the end of summer. Also every second saturday the cruze in is at the Walmart in Bedford. I will call every one whos number I have to remind you. If you want to be on the list please PM me with your number. Caminator I will be needing yours again as I forgot to save it in my phone. Well......back to the grind........

 

Last year a few of us met over at the sonic on Hull Street near Woodlake. Might be something to do again this year, or we could get together on Sunday at BWW. Used to have a group of motorcycle guys meet over there every Sunday and had specials for them. We could meet and take over patio. They also have non alcahol for the young guys.

 

Dont know if anyone has heard anything of it, but there is suppose to be a hot rod show/gathering in va beach at the beach on april 18.

 

I should look into that.

 

The Virginia Beach show is a pretty big deal. The show takes up several blocks of the beach and there is even a burnout contest around 5 pm

I work in Norfolk! Be sure and check out www.hrfbody.com for local events to attend till November!

 

Damn BK/McDonalds on RT 28, B4 I left for IRAQ I was like the only 3rd Gen their, maybe 1 or 2 high schoolers in beat up cars..well their was this blue IROC, but it was on a trailer and all he did was start it an rev it a few times, cant wait to get back from IRAQ BK/McD's is a favorite spot, high speed blasts down by the DMV are fun..

 

does anything ever go on around the richmond mechanicsville or ashland area??? i'm in 23111(mechanicsville)

 

^ I've been wondering the same.. I'm right in between Richmond and D.C..

 

yeah there is one club around here RPM http://richmondperformancemusclecars...s/Default.aspx its mainly a lt1 lsx car club. my brother and some friends are part of it and i know there are a few third gens but i dont wanna be part of "a few". haha Mighty Mouse is a memeber with his 8 second 1000+whp daily driver trans am. hes been in alot of magazines and stuff.

we needa start something around here

 

well i dont think my lil ol v6 would fit into that.

I just want a good laid back club that just likes to ride and have a good time.
Also third and/or fourth gen only.

 

i live in williamsburg, and the colonial parkway will be really nice once the leaves turn... its like, 28 kilometers, all windy, no commercial vehicles, and exposed aggregate... i am still working on mine... but it should be working in two weeks... i am going to post it for sale right after that... anyone interested in maybe driving the parkway? or even buying my car??? :P :P

 

i like the park way idea, we have one here in roanoke and i love driving it. also we hav weekend crusises. and in the noke area camintor was putting together a club, dont now how it turned out yet

 

Well, things have been downhill lately, but I finally dropped my new 350 in my car and got it running. Hopefully we can get something going around SWVA. Maybe we should divide it up and make the chain of info a little more reliable. I'm gonna try to hook up with all these F-bodies running around Lynchburg and who knows, maybe we can have a swap meet in July or August. My car is hardly what you would call "show worthy", but I just love to drive my car. That 200 bucks I spent to buy it was the best decision I ever made. Use to want a stang, Camaro drug my over the line and I damn sure ain't turning back. Let's try this whole thing again.

 

Count me in. Keep us in the loop

 

i started a thread here
Im in the NOVA area

Hey everone! im from lexington va 24450. we should should all go to the natural bridge dragstrip one friday night. im usually the the only 3rd gen there and one of 5 camaros all together. it would be nice to show those mustang queers that we exist in numbers also

 

lol my 3rd gen isnt...well its not a drag racing kinda car, more like street. anywas how old are you? i use to live in lexington and went to lyburg dowing middle and rockbridge high.

 

im 24. just moved to the area 2 years ago. but my cousins went to rchs. last name riccioni

 

aww to bad doesnt ring a bell. lexington is so small lol. best place was the drive movie down past the walmart. they open yet? we should meet sometime there. when i had my 88 i loved going there all the time.

 

Virginia Beach here.

 

i was there for beach week my senior year it was fun. couldnt really get on my 88 tho... picky cops.

 

I'm in for a show! I'm still halfway between lynchburg and roanoke. I should have my car back next week!

 

hey guys im about 10miles south of harrisonburg va in verona/fort defiance. there are a couple of us fbody guys in my area but not just thirdgens. ive been tying to get some sort of parkway cruise together ofr awhile but now both of my thirdgens are in pieces until everything from my 82 sells so i can begin my ls1 swap on my 86.

 

I'm around the corner from Justin at Smith Mountain Lake. My GTA is waiting for a new transmission...

Speaking of LS1 swaps, I have been reading up on them... I am starting to dream about doing one on my 86 bird... which I am saving for a full resto...

 

so close but yet so far....still havent got a chance to meet you yet LOL Want me to ask david about a transmission?

 

Yeah, Justin... if you talk to Dave before I do (we usually pass like ships in the night), you might mention that I need a working 700R4. I am working on a T5 swap, but it's gonna take a little while for me to get the transmission rebuilt and what-not... and I'd like to be able to drive the car in the meantime.

PS I am right around the corner in the radio station. Come by any time.

 

hey ternandes, i have a working 700r4 that i pulled from my 88 camaro. worked fine i just swapped it out for a tci unit. 100 bucks and you can have it. located in lexington va 25540

 

yeah they are open. come on down anytime, shoot me a text or whatever 5404611038

 

100 bucks for a working 700r4 is a steal! I may be going by lexington in a couple weeks and could possibly pick it up. Just depends if im taking my FJ Cruiser or my Formula on the trip lol

 

yeah ive been trippin over it for a few months at my shop and the tci one thats in my car is startin to mess too and ive read nothin but bad about these 700r4s so when i get the chance and my current deal worked out i swappin a th350 in. so i just want it gone but i dont wanna "give" it away.

 

I noticed there was an All GM show in Roanoke put on by Star City Pontiac club. It's the 15th at Tanglewood Mall. Anyone around the area feel like making an appearance? I've got the 84 on the road and even if it's not pretty, wouldn't mind going and hanging out at a car show for a while. Maybe Hooters afterward if anyone's interested?

I'll be there and I'll bring the kid with me!!!!

 

my car will be in the pontiac show, and my girlfriend and I will be working there all day
